The 'Crown' adjoins Colne railway station, (a bus shelter at the end of a long single track from Burnley), and the user of public transport wishing to go to Skipton must change here to a bus, provided once an hour by Pennine Motors since the early 1990s. Prior to that it was necessary to change at Barnoldswick. Many years ago, the train would have taken him all the way to Skipton. Note added, November 2013: In the last couple of years, Transdev, the operator of Burnley & Pendle buses, have extended their No.28 service through to Skipton on a regular basis, (daytime only) providing a much better link to the popular Yorkshire market town.
